Alleged British pedo arrested after NGO probe

Anti-human trafficking police arrested a British national yesterday on charges he molested three girls between the ages of 8 and 11.

Keo Thea, director of the police’s anti-human trafficking and juvenile protection office, confirmed the arrest of the 55-year-old suspect.

NGO Action Pour Les Enfants (APLE) tipped police off to allegations against him following an investigation they began last year. According to APLE, the man returned to Cambodia this month after molesting underage girls during past visits.
